Packer template for FreeBSD using mfsBSD

FreeBSD Packer Template

This repository provides a Packer template for building FreeBSD image with ZFS root. The repository is based on brd/packer-freebsd but use mfsBSD to bootstrap the installation over SSH instead of using boot command with FreeBSD ISO.

Usage

The resulting image is currently published at sirn/freebsd-13.0. You can init Vagrant environment with the image built from this repository with:

$ vagrant init sirn/freebsd-13.0

Or configure manually,

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.box = "sirn/freebsd-13.0"
  # Other configuration.
end
